So I figured this would be the best place to put this but mods feel free to move it to somewhere you deem more appropriate.
I'm new to riding and luckily have a few ATV parks nearby that I can check out.
Unfortunately for me I'm not great at keeping my bearings to know where I'm at to find my way back.
*Insert fanfare* here comes maplets. Now I'm not sure how many maps are available but the two parks near me and the one near my buddy in Arkansas are on there. Basically maplets is an app available on iOS store or for Android you can get it from the Amazon app store it was not listed in the regular Google play store last I checked.
Anyway the app allows you to download the maps for the parks so you do not.need an internet connection to use them. As long as you have the clear skies to get a GPS signal it will at the very least give you some idea of where you're at on the trail.
It was very useful for a group I went riding with down at one of the larger parks here in Texas. We kind of just took off from camp and starting riding and realized later we weren't quite sure where we were at. I got my phone out (in it's trusty ziploc.to stay clean touch screen works great in bag still) and got the map up and sure enough we we're at the far end of the park and just needed to make a couple turns to get a main trail back to camp.
So again. It may not be all that useful as I'm not sure if locations near you would be available but if they are I definitely recommend giving it a try.
